Who: Duke and Anyone who wants to find him
When: Sunday, monday, tuesday - He's going somewhere to sleep, but he's back early and leaves late.
What: Duke is withdrawing from people by burying himself in books. Clearly this means he should be bothered.
Style: [ To start ], but will prose if you do
Status: Open.

[ Lowell was gone. It really shouldn't have bothered him as much as it had, but the man was... moderately important. Not as important to him as others, but...

Duke shakes his head, turning the page he's on finally and setting the book on the air as he would set a book on a table surface. It stays, as Duke knew it would, shifting aside to bring one of the other two floating books into his line of sight.

So maybe its more running away. But it works, for him. Focus on something else, and nothing will really hurt. ]

Yes. Were we too late, it would have killed others.

[radiantwingedone]

[ Give him a moment of blank staring as he tries to decide if that was 'It would have resulted in more deaths than already happened' sort of 'killed others', or 'it would have killed me and someone else' sort of 'killed others'.

He can't quite figure it out. ]

... 'Others'?

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

I was with some others when we were finally able to calm the arte down.

[radiantwingedone]

Ah.

[ Okay then. That's better than 'I was crazy and killed people'.

He isn't sure if there's going to be more conversation. ]

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

Your world's magic, what is it called?

[He's been wanting to ask this.]

[radiantwingedone]

... Magic, but is that of Aer - now Mana. Refer to spells mostly as formula, as it is very similar to math.

... Yours?

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

Fonons, used in spells called artes. It's more focused on incantations and voice.

Yours seems to have more domestic uses than fonic artes.

[radiantwingedone]

... Artes is familiar, but mostly used for actions of weapons.

[ Domestic takes him a moment - he really is most familiar with the combat aspect - but he does realize what is meant as he looks at the floating book. ]

Something not usually explored, but is not that hard to specify what is wanted for uses like that.

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

I suppose creating a table wasn't quite high on my list of things to do.

[radiantwingedone]

... Normally used when did not have a table.

[ No bowls of hot stew in his lap, thank you. Too many critters liked him for that to be safe. ]

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[Jade works in a place where there were tables on tables. He never really had want for something like that.

Though, interesting ideas were coming up in his head for now.]

[radiantwingedone]

[ Of course, Duke doesn't really use this sort of telekinesis spell for just books. Swords work with it just as well-

But with the lull in conversation, he turns back to his notes. Oops? ]
